Ornamentation for Doric & Ionic columns, curved objects, and much more. Mostly used for developing organic shapes though, there are a lot of things you will want to do with this tool.Į.g. Once you master this tool, you just can’t resist using it. All you have to do is draw a shape or profile and drag it along your path. Developing Organic shapes with easeįollow me. © One-point Perspective ©Two-point Perspective ©Three-point Perspective ©6. You can either draw your contours or even import an AutoCAD file that can be used as a base surface to develop the necessary terrain. To develop terrain is important to many SketchUp modelers: your model building needs ground to stand on, or in case you are modeling the ground itself to create a landscape, SketchUp’s Sandbox tool has to be your go-to option. If you are working on a single-family home, for instance, and have to create a report of data to work with the sub-contractor, SketchUp may be more than enough for you. The idea of dedicated BIM applications is to create and manage your project. One such plugin is Skalp, you may find a few more that will suit your work, just Google it!
Not many would believe this but yes, SketchUp has BIM functionality! With the help of plugins, of course. So, without any further due, let’s see what are the 10 things you did not know you could do with SketchUp! 1.
There’s so much SketchUp can do, that I might just run out of words describing it. The information is out there if you’re willing to check it out.Right from the initial design process, it is an effective tool for conceptual designing, and just as the name suggests you can sketch-it-up! It’s like a digital version for your concept sketch that can be taken to the final rendering and animation stages. If you’re motivated enough though, then you can learn everything they teach in class and more from the internet. A lot of the programs use similar concepts & many drafting classes use Sketchup in addition to AutoCAD or something. I wish class used SketchUp more though.īut if you take some drafting classes, then it will help a lot. I went to school for drafting too, so that helped a lot. The things that helped me learn SketchUp the most were the “SketchUp Training Series” on Youtube and the SketchUp Forums. I’m sure you’ll figure it out soon though, but it does take a bit of time/effort to become proficient. It seems like there’s always something new to learn, despite it’s simple user interface. When I was first learning SketchUp, I had difficulties too. SketchUp is great for things like rearranging your room, planning an event, or even designing a building! The applications are virtually endless. SketchUp is an extremely cool program! It’s an indispensable tool for making anything in real life because it helps you plan in 3D. I can tell that this will be cool, but not if I can’t learn it.
